What grows around Boksburg
Boksburg sits on old mining ground in the heart of the East Rand, and the bluegum rows planted along reefs and dumps a century ago still define many skylines. Suburbs such as Sunward Park, Parkdene and Beyers Park have mature gardens with jacarandas, pines and fruit trees; Jet Park and Witfield are more industrial, with boundary gums over fences. Around Boksburg Lake and the Cinderella Dam, willows and poplars lean over water. Afternoon thunderstorms with lightning and hail are common from October, and big gums drop heavy limbs when they fail. Homeowners, businesses and schools ask for felling, trimming and stump grinding. Check the listing for gums on your land.
